Description
The Warm Audio WA-TS Tube Squealer is a game-changing overdrive pedal that reinvents everything you love about the world’s most iconic stompboxes—and then pushes it further. Available only at Guitar Center in the U.S., this all-analog beast packs three classic circuits into one compact, no-compromise design. With genuine JRC4558 op-amps and premium components under the hood, it delivers rich, tube-like saturation and soft-clipping warmth that hits every nuance of your playing. Whether you're dialing in subtle grit or unleashing full-throttle tone, the WA-TS stands ready to shape your sound with mix control, pickup voicing, and headroom tailoring features pros dream of.
Three Legendary Overdrives, One Breakthrough Pedal
Why settle for one tone when you can have the best of three? The WA-TS lets you toggle between spot-on recreations of the 808, TS9, and TS10—each with its own distinct flavor. From the smooth, singing breakup of the 808 to the punchy edge of the TS9 and the slightly transparent sparkle of the TS10, you get instant access to tones made famous by legends like Stevie Ray Vaughan and John Mayer. No modeling here—just real, analog tone that lives and breathes under your feet.
Pro-Level Controls That Go Beyond Vintage
This isn’t your average reissue. The WA-TS adds modern features that make it a true standout. Shape your drive with precision using level, tone, and gain knobs, then fine-tune with a mix control that blends your clean and dirty signal. The pickup voicing switch optimizes the response for single-coils or humbuckers, while the external voltage boost expands headroom for louder, punchier tones without early breakup. Whether you’re after tight rhythm tone or open solo sustain, it adapts seamlessly to your rig.
Bypass Options Built for Real Pedalboards
Choose between true bypass or buffered bypass depending on your setup—no tone suck, no compromises. Standard ¼" I/O and a compact footprint make it pedalboard-ready, while the top-mounted mix and voicing controls stay easy to access in the heat of a gig. The WA-TS fits any workflow, whether you're tweaking your tone mid-set or dialing in in the studio. No menus, no fuss—just real-time control where it counts.
Hand-Tested Quality You Can Feel
Every WA-TS is hand-tested in Austin, Texas, and built with no shortcuts. From the rugged enclosure to the vintage-spec components, this pedal is built for tone, reliability, and serious road use. At just 1 lb., it's lightweight but ready to take a beating, gig after gig. With Warm Audio’s 5-year warranty behind it, you can trust the WA-TS to bring your tone to life, show after show.
The Exclusive Overdrive You’ve Been Waiting For
From clean-boost magic to saturated lead tones, the Warm Audio WA-TS Tube Squealer does it all with unmatched versatility and pure analog tone. And as a Guitar Center U.S. exclusive, this pedal is more than a reissue—it’s a new standard for serious players chasing the perfect overdrive. It’s time to elevate your board with a pedal that doesn’t just honor the classics—it redefines them.
